A Girl's Longing
Chapter 03

"Back yuk in the afternoon" Zahra invited her three friends home.

"Yes, Raaa, what's wrong?" Reject Fia while glancing with her eyes, looking at Salun who was currently looking at the beautiful sea water in silence.

Zahra who understood that immediately nodded steadily, she tried to see the sad face of her best friend, since long ago she rarely saw Salun like this, because the girl was too good at hiding her heart wounds with her smile.

"Sal, sorry ya ntar night I can't nemenin loe, I have a show with my family, you're okay right?" Zahra patted the back of Salun's hand gently until the girl woke up from her daydream.

"Eh yes Ra, I'm not why-why, loe just calm, anyways I'm also used to myself" replied Salun lightly with a smile as sweet as possible.

Many say that Salun's smile makes anyone's heart melt from the sweetness, because Salun has two teeth on the right and left so that makes her beauty more and more.

"Yes, we've come back, it's late afternoon, you guys want to go back together, right?" Salun asked his two best friends, Dyah and He, because according to Zahra they had come with their parents, but since his arrival to the place the girl had not seen him.

"No Sal, we're Dateng with our parents, but they're there" Fia pointed at a building not far from where they were.

Fia and Dyah are cousins, Fia's father is the younger sister of her father Dyah, they are there because it just so happens that today there is an engagement party of her relatives, she said, so they came to help prepare everything. 

"Yes already if that is so we go back first yes, see you tomorrow at school yes" said Salun say goodbye.

"Look Ra" he asked Zahra, Zahra immediately stood up from her seat and grabbed Salun's shoulder.

"Our gaes first yes, papay" he said, waving his hands at Fia and Dyah.

"Now who's driving?" Ask Salun after arriving at the parking lot.

"Who may Sal" replied Zahra.

"I've been driving, you want to go home to my house or go straight to your house?" 

"To my house, let me not have to walk later, hehehe" 

"OK lah if that, let me directly anterin loe go home, let's go up" 

"Meanwhile" the two shouted simultaneously, making their laughter just break apart.

A man was leaning his body on the back of a sofa, he was only 17 years old, his name was Cemal Sastro, he was thinking about a girl he had met by the beach this afternoon.

"The girl is so beautiful, why did I forget to ask her to meet" he wrote to himself.

Cemal is a new resident of the village, he moved two days ago from the city, his parents were once a nomad, and now they return to the village of his late grandfather.

"This mama's son why the hell, from earlier mama saw aja bengong" Safira came and sat his body next to the son.

"It's okay ma, just a twinkle was around the beach" replied Cemal lying.

"Dear, everything is done, tomorrow you can go to school again"

"Good ma if that's the case" replied Cemal briefly.

"Yes you took a bath, we had dinner together after papa came" Sapphira told her son to clean up.

"Yes no longer, Cemal still wants to be here" Cemal refused, he still wants to relax after a hot day.

"Yes, if that's the case, mama just cook first yes, don't take a long bath before papa comes" Safira noticed the son before she finally stepped into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

"Yes ma yes, this is Cemal already want to take a shower" finally Cemal who was lazy to argue with the mother relented and immediately stepped towards his room.

"The girl's a school where yes, if only I knew where the school might be I'd ask papa to enroll me in the same school as him" Cemal talked to himself while removing all the clothes attached to his body and then put it on the dirty laundry basket in his bathroom.

Fifteen minutes passed, Cemal had finished his bathing ritual, he dried his whole body with a towel, and he was, then step into the closet and take his dress shirt in the form of black knee-length shorts and a white body fitting shirt, spraying his favorite perfume on part of his body.

"Ah" threw her body on the bed, staring at the ceiling of her room, her encounter with the girl she did not know her name always revolved in her brain memory. 

"Why do I always remember that girl, what is this thing called falling in love at first sight?" He muttered in his heart, until without feeling Cemal fell asleep by imagining a second meeting with the girl.

"Tok, Tok, Tok" the sound of knocking on the door made Cemal wake up, in the lyrics wall clock hanging on the desk of his study, it turns out to have shown at 21:15 minutes, at the end of the day, Cemal was shocked until he immediately sat down from his sleep.

"Jeez, I fell asleep" he murmured softly.

"Cemal, let's have dinner, papa has been waiting for you from earlier" cried Safira from outside the door of the son's room.

"Yes ma, Cemal brags again kluar kok ma" Cemal immediately stepped into the bathroom to wash his face.

Ten minutes later the three of them had gathered at the dinner table, Jufri and Safira and Cemal were enjoying dinner together in silence, only the clanking of spoons and forks that enlivened their dinner showings.

"Why son, are you ready to go to school tomorrow?" Jufri asked after sipping a glass of water prepared by his wife.

"What school did you sign up for?" I wonder where his new school is.

"Papa listin you at Nusa fence High School, not far from the sub-district office" Jufri stared fixedly at the face of the son, he hoped a lot on the only son.

"Oh, yes Cemal is ready" he replied as he chewed the food he had just put in his mouth.

"Can you ask for something?" Jufri continued, while Safira she chose silence because she knew that her husband was advising his son.

"What pa?" Cemal answered briefly, in reaching a glass filled with water beside him, gulping it down to the remaining half.

"Papa asks you to learn the right, do not embarrass papa with Mama again, stop smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages, all this time papa and mama always obey whatever you want, you know, now it's time to follow your request to Mama, papa wants to see you become a better child, can you?" Jufri expressed his desire, during this time Cemal was famous as a naughty child who often smoked and brought liquor to his school, so he was expelled from school.
